If you've happened to browse through the at book shops of East London such as Broadway Market's Artwords in the last couple of years, you're sure to have seen Hoxton Mini Press' first two publications. The young publisher was founded by photographer Martin Usborne and Anne Waldvogel in 2013 to release Martin's photographic series of Hoxton born and bred pensioner Joseph Markovitch, 'I've Lived in East London for 86 1/2 Years' . Last year this was followed up with the illustrations of Adam Dant's '50 People of East London' and there are more books documenting the people and places of Hackney to be released in the coming months.
Now a new exhibition is presenting prints from these two debut releases at gallery space/restaurant/cafe The Proud Archivist in Dalston. 51 Faces of Hackney runs from today until 30th March 2014.
